People wearing colorful glasses

Life is too short for boring glasses!

In a world where black, brown and grey are the go-to choices for everything, it’s time to break free and add a splash of colour to your look. 

Glasses and sunglasses are the perfect accessories to do so.

Bright and bold

Bright colours are very trendy this spring –  green, light blue and shades of red in particular.

With a little research, you can really find the perfect model that reflects your personality.

For example, some eye-catching Gucci frames or iconic Prada looks.

Of course, pairing them with your outfit calls for balance. Let your frames be the main focus and keep the rest in neutral tones.

Sorry, we could not find the following product IDs in our database: 627450. Please check and use correct values.

Pastel shades

If your style is more understated elegance than loud and proud, pastel shades are your perfect match. 

Soft pinks, baby blues and mint greens offer a subtle yet stylish way to incorporate colour into your look.

These Pastel Pop SmartBuy Collection hues work beautifully with spring and summer wardrobes! 

Earth tones

Earth tones offer a sophisticated and versatile palette. Think of warm browns, olive greens and soft grays that remind you of the great outdoors.

Earth-toned glasses can seamlessly blend with almost any outfit, enhancing your natural features without overpowering them.

Festival frames

From psychedelic patterns to frames that feature every colour of the rainbow, festival glasses are all about self-expression and fun.

They’re the perfect accessory for music festivals, beach parties or any event where you want to stand out.

Remember, when it comes to festival frames, the more extravagant, the better.

It's all about your palette!

Choosing the right colour for your glasses or sunglasses is about your personal palette – your skin tone, hair colour and the shades you feel most confident in.

An extra tip: before selecting a pair of colourful glasses, think about your existing wardrobe. Opt for colours that complement or offer an exciting contrast to the clothes you love wearing. 

For instance, a pair of red frames will add a pop of colour to a monochrome outfit, while green glasses can complete a look made up of earthy tones.

Of course, you should also consider your face shape, lens options and frame size for the best fit, but shopping by colour is a great way to start your search for your next pair of frames.

After all, as mentioned before, life’s too short for boring glasses.

Where to Buy Blue Light Glasses

Picture of Aurora Gould

Aurora Gould

Aurora is a Digital Marketing Specialist for SmartBuyGlasses. She’s enthusiastic about supporting the marketing efforts across multiple channels. Her goal is to create riveting content that is also educational by bringing to you all the latest eyewear trends.

If you’ve been keeping up-to-date with developments in the eyewear world of late, you might be aware that blue light glasses are kicking up quite the storm. Rightfully so, if we’re honest – this innovative technology has been at the centre of attention for a couple of years now. It’s a development that has been picked up on by the top minds at premium fashion houses like Tom Ford, as well as value style specialists like Arise Collective. If you’re looking for where to buy blue light glasses, you’re in luck. Both of these blue light glasses brands are headlining our collection at SmartBuyGlasses!

 

Before we outline our best blue light glasses, we thought now would be a good opportunity to get you all caught up with the basics of blue light filter glasses.

What Is Blue Light?

 

Blue light is a potentially harmful form of light. While it’s naturally emitted by the sun, electronic devices – the kind you’re probably sick of after 2020 – are also to blame. The screens with which we’re oh-so-familiar are dangerously good at pumping out blue light. 

 

Why do you think blue light glasses are so popular with online professionals and gamers? They’re the ones spending the most time in front of screens! Blue light rays at a wavelength between 415 – 455 nanometers can damage your retinal cells. This may lead to premature eye ageing and vision problems in the future. Not nice.

What Are Blue Light Glasses?

Blue light glasses, blue light blocking glasses, blue light filter glasses – they’re all the same. We like to use the term ‘blue light glasses’, but you’ll likely find them under a number of names wherever you look. The answer is actually pretty simple. They’re a type of glasses with specially-crafted lens technologies that filter out blue light – the sort we’ve just explained up above. 

 

If you, like most of us, spend much of your day in front of a screen, you might need blue light blocking glasses. They help to protect your eyes from digital eye strain and can prevent computer vision syndrome. We like blue light glasses, as they protect your eyes from the blue light emitted from the screens without compromising your vision.

How Do Blue Light Glasses Work – and Do They?

With blue light filter glasses, the secret’s in the lens coatings. The lenses in blue light glasses contain special treatments designed to filter out blue light. Said lenses are often also treated with anti-glare coatings to further reduce the strain on your eyes.

 

By blocking blue light, you let your body’s normal hormonal rhythm run its course, which is really important if you enjoy a good night’s sleep. Blue light glasses don’t just reduce digital eye strain. They also allow your body to take its natural cues only from the sun, rather than screens, which can trick your brain into thinking it’s still light outside.

 

Don’t just trust us – trust the science. Blue light glasses have been shown to reduce the impact of blue light on macular degeneration.

Where to Buy Blue Light Glasses

If you’ve been keeping up-to-date with developments in the eyewear world of late, you might be aware that blue light glasses are kicking up quite the storm. Rightfully so, if we’re honest – this innovative technology has been at the centre of attention for a couple of years now. It’s a development that has been picked up on by the top minds at premium fashion houses like Tom Ford, as well as value style specialists like Arise Collective. If you’re looking for where to buy blue light glasses, you’re in luck. Both of these blue light glasses brands are headlining our collection at SmartBuyGlasses!

 

Before we outline our best blue light glasses, we thought now would be a good opportunity to get you all caught up with the basics of blue light filter glasses.

What Is Blue Light?

Blue light is a potentially harmful form of light. While it’s naturally emitted by the sun, electronic devices – the kind you’re probably sick of after 2020 – are also to blame. The screens with which we’re oh-so-familiar are dangerously good at pumping out blue light. 

 

Why do you think blue light glasses are so popular with online professionals and gamers? They’re the ones spending the most time in front of screens! Blue light rays at a wavelength between 415 – 455 nanometers can damage your retinal cells. This may lead to premature eye ageing and vision problems in the future. Not nice.

What Are Blue Light Glasses?

Blue light glasses, blue light blocking glasses, blue light filter glasses – they’re all the same. We like to use the term ‘blue light glasses’, but you’ll likely find them under a number of names wherever you look. The answer is actually pretty simple. They’re a type of glasses with specially-crafted lens technologies that filter out blue light – the sort we’ve just explained up above. 

 

If you, like most of us, spend much of your day in front of a screen, you might need blue light blocking glasses. They help to protect your eyes from digital eye strain and can prevent computer vision syndrome. We like blue light glasses, as they protect your eyes from the blue light emitted from the screens without compromising your vision.

Why You Need zFORT® Blue Light Blocking Glasses ASAP

Picture of Aurora Gould

Aurora Gould

Aurora is a Digital Marketing Specialist for SmartBuyGlasses. She’s enthusiastic about supporting the marketing efforts across multiple channels. Her goal is to create riveting content that is also educational by bringing to you all the latest eyewear trends.

Instagram obsessed? Binge-watching Netflix? Work on a computer? Go into the sun? If you said yes to any of these questions (we’re guessing this covers about 99.99% of you), then you’re exposing your eyes to blue light. zFORT® blue light block technology was recently launched at SmartBuyGlasses. We’re here to give you the lowdown on why you need blue light glasses in the first place, the tech behind zFORT® blue light blockers, plus our top style picks for blue light blocking glasses. Read on to find out more!

What is blue light?

Blue light is a high-energy visible light that comes from the sun as well as digital devices. Sunlight is made up of red, orange, yellow, green and blue light rays with different levels of energy and wavelengths. Blue light rays have short wavelengths between 380nm and 500nm with high energy levels. Studies have found that when blue light rays reach a wavelength of between 415-455nm, they could be extremely harmful to eye health as they penetrate through the retina. 

What are the benefits of blue light and the negatives?

Like anything in life, there are positives and dangers associated with blue light exposure. You need some blue light exposure for potentially: 

  • • Boosting your memory and mood 
  • • Regulating your circadian rhythm (read your sleep cycle!)  
  • • Maintaining healthy development of the eyes in children 

However, regular and frequent exposure to blue light, especially from artificial sources, could potentially pose health risks including: 

  • • Exposure at night time could cause difficulty sleeping and tiredness
  • • It could increase headaches
  • • It could increase digital eye strain
  • • Maybe even cause damage to the retina leading to age-related macular degeneration

What’s zFORT®?

zFORT® is blue light blocking technology. Basically, it helps to block a portion of blue light wavelengths between 380 and 500nm from reaching your eye and potentially causing detrimental damage. 

The blocker helps to scatter the wavelengths away from the eyes, acting like a shield of protection. If you’re living in the 21st century, then you’re going to want to check them out since we rely on blue light-emitting technology for pretty much everything these days.

Why do you need blue-light-blocking glasses?

Every time you’re on a digital device, you’re increasing your exposure to blue light. You’re already exposed naturally to blue light from the sun, so we need to take measures to limit the potentially negative health effects of our phones, laptops, and gaming devices.

The main reasons we’re buying zFORT® (and think you should too):

  1. Potentially less glare when working/gaming/looking at your computer screen
  2. Help to reduce eye strain
  3. Help to improve sleep
  4. Potentially reduce headaches

Besides the health benefits, zFORT® has a super accessible price point and can be added on as a lens tint to any of the Vision Direct prescription or non-prescription glasses during checkout. Different from those sometimes unfashionable-looking computer glasses, you don’t have to worry about a yellow tint on the lenses either.

Our top picks for blue light blocking glasses:

We regularly rave about blue-light-blocking glasses because we think they’re a basic health necessity in our modern-day lives. You can read about our top picks for blue light filtering glasses that come with their own protection (no zFORT® necessary) here OR take a look at our top 5 favorite glasses right now that can have zFORT® added during checkout here:

1) Oakley Tenon

These new Oakley glasses for men feature midnight blue frames and pilot-shaped lenses. Suitable for prescription and non-prescription wearers, you’ll stand out in the office (or your next Zoom call if you’re working from home!) for all the right reasons in a pair of these. Just add zFORT® to the lenses during checkout. Not sure if this is quite for you? Try it on by using the virtual try-on selfie view on the product page!

2) Fendi FF 0329 S9E

Unisex with quirky matte gold pilot-shaped frames and a purple tail, we’re obsessed with the latest glasses from Fendi. Slip a pair of these aviator-style specs with zFORT® blue block protection on during your next Instagram scroll for the most stylish protection yet! Do you want to buy this right away but can’t find your prescription? Use the SmartBuyGlasses prescription lens scanner to extract your prescription from your current pair of glasses in just a few minutes!

3) Ray-Ban RX5154 Clubmaster 2001

These are THE glasses to pick if you’re new to wearing them! Suitable for both prescription and non-prescription wearers, these Ray-Ban specs have transparent frames and look just as cool on when working on your laptop as they do when you’re on the couch playing video games. 

4) Dolce and Gabbana DG3325

Elegant and sophisticated cat-eyed shape glasses in a grey-brown shade. With gold-armed frames to complete the luxurious specs, these are made for days when only Italian designers will do! Make them even better with zFORT® blue light protection. 

5) SmartBuy Collection Lita

Quirky and ultra-affordable, these specs are ideal if you’re just discovering the world of computer glasses. With red hexagonal lenses with gold accents, you’ll look better than ever on your next Netflix binge.

Your Style Handbook for Browline Glasses

What they are |
Who can pull them off? |
A style for everyone

By Ivana Yankova

three pairs of browline glasses on a blue background

Ever notice how some accessories just never go out of style? Browline glasses are a perfect example. 

Whether you’re channelling the sophisticated look of a 1950s movie star or adding a retro touch to your modern wardrobe, these frames have a unique way of complementing any face shape and style. 

Let’s find out what makes these frames so special and how to find the perfect pair for your face shape.

What are brownline glasses?

Browline glasses are a frame style in which the upper part of the frame is bolder and thicker than the lower part. This design mimics the natural line of the eyebrows, giving these glasses their unique name.

These frames were invented in the 1940s. The first model, “Ronsir,” was ahead of its time, with customisable bridges, eye wires and “brows”.  

Combining materials like metal and plastic makes the browline eyeglasses look big without making them heavy. 

Browline frames gained popularity in the 50s and 60s and were often seen on celebrities and public figures. Their versatility brings a stylish retro look to any outfit making them a favourite for both men and women.

How to pull off browline glasses

Nowadays, browline glasses come in different shapes and sizes, which is a great opportunity for everyone to find a pair that looks good on them.

The key is to find a pair that complements your face shape. This way, your glasses will highlight your features instead of overpowering them.

If you don’t know what your shape is, you can check out our handy tool to help you find your face shape accurately.

Oval-shaped faces

If you have an oval face, consider yourself lucky! Oval-shaped faces have balanced proportions with slightly wider cheekbones and a gently curved jawline. 

Almost any style of browline frames will look amazing on you which gives you complete freedom of frame choice.

We recommend trying square frames because they will add some edge and structure to your balanced features. 

A classic pair of Ray-Ban Clubmaster glasses with a slightly wider frame to highlight your cheekbones can effortlessly transform your coffee date look into fancy dinner attire.

Round-shaped faces

Round faces usually have fuller cheeks and a rounded jawline, with the face being about as wide as it is long. 

To add some angles and make your face look longer, go for browline glasses with sharp lines and a wide brow. Angular or rectangular frames can help elongate your face and create a more defined look. 

Think about browline frames with a thicker upper frame in one solid colour and thin metal lower rims – they can give your face a more sculpted appearance, perfect for those Instagram-worthy selfies.

And if you want to achieve a more feminine look, cat eye glasses also look great on round face shapes by giving it a soft edge that instantly catches the attention.

Square-shaped faces

Square faces have strong, angular jawlines and equally wide cheekbones and foreheads. 

If you have a square face, your facial features are typically very defined and prominent, giving you a bold and striking appearance.

Choose browline eyeglasses with rounded edges or a slight curve. Oval or round frames can help balance your strong features and add some softness. 

Picture yourself in a pair with tortoiseshell upper rims and sleek metal lower frames. These  browline glasses frames can add a touch of sophistication and make your sharp features stand out in the best way.

Heart-shaped faces

Heart-shaped faces have a broad forehead and cheekbones with a narrower chin.

If you fit this description, look for browline glasses with a wider lower frame to even out the width of your forehead and add some width to your chin area. 

Cat eye or semi-rimless frames can also work well, adding width to the lower part of your face. These glasses can make your face look more balanced and highlight your natural charm.

Sorry, we could not find the following product IDs in our database: 642870. Please check and use correct values.

Diamond-shaped faces

The diamond face shape is among the rarest in the world. They have narrow foreheads and jawlines with broad cheekbones. 

To show off those prominent features and balance your narrow forehead and chin, pick browline glasses that are slightly wider than your cheekbones such as oval or cat eye frames. 

A chic pair of browline glasses draws attention to your upper face and enhances your personal style, giving you a stylish look, great for any occasion.

Sorry, we could not find the following product IDs in our database: 679744. Please check and use correct values.

Browline glasses: A style that fits all

Browline glasses can complement any face shape if you choose the right pair.

You can confidently wear this iconic style by knowing your face shape and picking frames that highlight your best features. 

Whether you want a retro vibe or a modern twist, browline prescription glasses are a versatile addition to your look.

And don’t forget about browline sunglasses! They’re perfect for adding a touch of style to your beach days or outdoor adventures.

SUMMARY

Both photochromic and polarised lenses effectively protect the eyes from UV rays.

The main difference is that while polarised lenses are always tinted with a coating that cuts out glare, photochromic lenses only darken when in contact with UV light, remaining clear otherwise

Sunglasses are a versatile accessory; they protect your eyes and make you look cool. You may put a lot of thought into the frame of your glasses or sunglasses, but choosing the right lenses is just as important.

With so many lenses available, it may be difficult to understand which are right for you. The best lenses for an individual will depend on your unique visual needs and what you hope to get from your shades.

Polarised and photochromic lenses are two of the many lens choices which offer excellent UV protection, but many wonder, what exactly is the difference?

What is the difference between photochromic and polarised lenses?

Photochromic and polarised lenses both effectively protect your eyes from harmful UV rays. They’re both available in a diverse range of frame styles and are highly beneficial to wearers. The difference?

Simply put, photochromic lenses automatically adjust from clear to dark with UV exposure. Photochromic lenses start clear and darken upon coming into contact with UV light. 

Unlike photochromic lenses, polarised lenses are always tinted and have a special coating that filters out horizontal light rays, which essentially means they cut out glare.

DID YOU KNOW?

Polarised lenses were invented in 1936, exactly thirty years before photochromic lenses.

What are photochromic lenses?

You may have also heard photochromic lenses being referred to as Transitions® lenses, but are they the same?

Transitions® lenses and photochromic lenses work the same way and are essentially the same thing. Transitions® is a brand name and type of photochromic lens manufactured by Transitions Optical Limited.

Photochromic lenses are an excellent choice for people who are sick of switching between their prescription glasses and prescription sunglasses.

As light conditions change, so do the lenses, depending on the intensity of ultraviolet light. And the best part, you never have to change your frames.

Inside, away from UV light, photochromic lenses are clear, but as soon as you step outside and UV rays are present, they gradually darken.

Plastic photochromic lenses and glass photochromic lenses use the same technology but are a bit different in their composition. 

Plastic photochromic lenses include molecules of silver halide that are usually layered or embedded evenly onto the surface of the lens, providing an even tint when exposed to UV light conditions, whereas glass photochromic lenses contain the molecules within the glass.

The convenient all-in-one nature of these lenses provides extra comfort in changing environments for those who need prescription eyewear.

How do photochromic lenses work?

It’s all about a chemical reaction. Photochromic lenses have light-sensitive molecules that shift their structure when combined with UV light, allowing them to easily adapt to changing light conditions. 

When this light is absorbed, the lenses darken. Away from the sunlight, the process reverses, and the lenses become clear again.

gif showing photochromic glasses

On average, photochromic lenses darken in 30–60 seconds and clear a bit slower in 2–3 minutes.

The molecules in photochromic lenses are not only sensitive to the presence of UV light but also the amount of it. When exposed to bright light, they will change more quickly; less light and they’ll change more slowly.

If you find yourself in the shade, you might notice your lenses darkening less than in direct sunlight. UV light is still present in low light settings like overcast skies, causing photochromic lenses to darken even in these conditions. 

Pros and cons of photochromic lenses

The biggest advantages are how cost-effective, convenient and versatile photochromic lenses can be. With no need for a separate pair, one pair of glasses acts as both your eyeglasses and sunglasses.

Photochromic glasses mean no need to worry about changing your glasses upon entering or exiting a building or the sunshine. 

The versatility of photochromic lenses is especially beneficial when the weather changes throughout the day, making them great for those with an active lifestyle. 

If you’re on the slopes, or hiking in the woods, and the sun keeps disappearing behind the clouds and coming out again, your vision and comfort remain unaffected.  

While photochromic glasses benefit many wearers, there are some disadvantages to consider. Temperature impacts the rate at which photochromic lenses darken or clear up. 

The lenses usually darken more fully in cold weather but take longer to clear. In warmer weather, they may not darken as much but will become clear quicker.

Most photochromic lenses perform well for three-plus years, but eventually, they will become less reactive to light conditions and take longer to shift between clear and tinted. 

Some models, including the Transitions XTRActive® lenses, have more photochromic molecules allowing them to transition even while in the car. These lenses always have a very light base tint and will not go as dark in the car as they do outdoors.

What are polarised lenses?

Polarised lenses are tinted lenses with a special coating that blocks glare, boosts visibility, increases clarity and enhances contrast to make your surroundings more vibrant.

difference between polarised and non polarised sunglasses

Polarised sunglasses provide optimal vision for outdoor activities, as they block out reflections that come from smooth surfaces, like, snow or water.

When the sun reflects off these surfaces, it causes a powerful, horizontal glare that may cause eye damage and strain.

Polarised lenses improve visual clarity by reducing glare from reflective surfaces, making it easy for your eyes to focus, while also increasing colour contrast and giving you greater depth perception.

How do polarised lenses work?

Whether hiking, cycling or boating, polarised sunglasses are a great option for those who spend a lot of time outdoors. The lenses are designed to reduce glare and enhance outdoor vision, helping improve performance while making colours look more vibrant.

Polarised lenses are well suited for driving during the day, as glare from other cars, or the road, is a common scenario. 

With reduced glare comes a lower risk of eye strain. Polarised lenses are an excellent solution for people with light sensitivity, and they may even be recommended to patients who have had cataract surgery.

Pros and cons of polarised lenses

Whether hiking, cycling or boating, polarised sunglasses are a great option for those who spend a lot of time outdoors. The lenses are designed to reduce glare and enhance outdoor vision, helping improve performance while making colours look more vibrant.

With reduced glare comes a lower risk of eye strain. Polarised lenses are an excellent solution for people with light sensitivity, and they may even be recommended to patients who have had cataract surgery.

With many advantages, there are some things to consider before buying polarised lenses. Polarised lenses may reduce vision clarity when looking at LCD screens or certain displays. 

For anyone working in a job where looking at display screens is expected, you should test polarised lenses on them before purchasing. 

While polarised lenses are beneficial in snowy conditions, they may make it harder to see patches of ice.

If you’re skiing, snowboarding, driving or walking where there might be lots of ice, it may be best to avoid your polarised sunglasses and reach for another pair.

Another disadvantage is that polarised lenses are always tinted, so if you wear prescription glasses, you will need to carry around both your glasses and sunglasses. 

Which is better - photochromic or polarised lenses?

Polarised and photochromic lenses have distinct qualities and advantages, making them great options for your collection. Generally, neither is considered better than the other.

Photochromic lenses are a great option for those who are always on the run, with one pair of glasses serving as eyeglasses and sunglasses.

Polarised lenses block out glare and reflections, not only improving vision but providing a level of safety, and are a great choice for outdoor activities.

Both types of lenses will protect your eyes from the sun’s harmful UV rays. The best choice is always individual, so it’s best to review the functionalities of each, consider your environment and budget and compare this to your lifestyle.

Depending on what you use your sunglasses for, one may be a better choice than the other. 

If a reduction in glare will benefit your performance in fishing or cycling, for example, you may choose polarised lenses. Photochromic lenses may be best for you if you need a pair of sunglasses for everyday wear.

Lenses don’t have to be complicated; consider the differences and your vision needs, so you can buy and wear what works for you. With so many options, it’s always best to be informed about your choices. 

Head to our Optical Centre to learn more about these lenses, or speak with one of our opticians. And remember, whether you purchase photochromic or polarised lenses, make sure they fit into frames that make you feel confident.
